Reviews

[Daniel · Rating 4 out of 5]

Read this as a follow up to his earlier book Warlock. Really enjoyed this- it suffers a little from a lack of humor, but it moves steadily enough, and while it could be accused of melodrama I really enjoyed it.

[Jeff Bradbury · Rating 3 out of 5]

3.5 stars. Interesting insights into history. I learned much. Satisfying in the end.

[Stuart · Rating 4 out of 5]

IMO this one is better than Warlock, for all the same reasons, but about a historical period (conquest of MX) that is not nearly as overplayed. It begins with Cabeza de Vaca, then flashes back and forth to the conquest of the Aztecs. Talk about a ripping yarn! The battles for Tenochtitlan have enough jaw-dropping action for a whole bookshelf of lesser novels.
